Collect like terms 
so take it in steps :
1) -4x^3 * x^-8 . rules of powers state that when you are multiplying like terms(both have to do with x) you can add the powers. thus = -4x^-5
2) 2y^-2 * 5y^5 . same rule as above. since -2+5=3. the number before your coefficient (x or y) tells you how many lots of it you have . the answer becomes 2*5y^3 = 10y^3 .
3) since you are now left with x and y s which are not the same number, you can multiply out ---> 10*-4 = -40 
                          ---> y^3*x^-5 stays the same as you can not combine y and x
In total you have : -40y^3*x^-5

The coefficient is a number that is placed in front of the variable for which It is being multiplied to. In this case it would be 5.

Constants are values that can be thought of as the opposite of coefficients in that they do not have any other variables or letters and thus they include only a number.

Their value does not change.

Round 259.98991 to the nearest hundredths
lozanna [386]

Answer:

259.99

Step-by-step explanation:

You look at the hundreths place and see if the number behind it is bigger than 5, and if it is then you up it by one, and if it's 4 and below then you round it to zero. In this case you up it by one and you get 269.99.

I hope this helps!!!!

11. Which matrix represents the system of equations below?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}-12&-13&13&|15\\7&-10&-3&|11\\7&14&5&\:\:\:|-5\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is;

-12x-13y +13z =15

7x-10y-3z = 11

7x+14y +5z = -5

The coefficient matrix is \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-12&-13&13\\7&-10&-3\\7&14&5\end{array}\right]

The constant matrix is \left[\begin{array}{c}15\\11\\-5\end{array}\right]

The augmented matrix is \left[\begin{array}{cccc}-12&-13&13&|15\\7&-10&-3&|11\\7&14&5&\:\:\:|-5\end{array}\right]
